Introduce flow-view for automations

[LoganJFisher]

Describe the feature

Home Assistant automations can accommodate branching systems with many layers of conditional statements. The trouble is, in the current block-based view or in YAML, these can be visually difficult to follow. This is where flow-based visualizations like that used by Node-RED thrive. Of course, Node-RED could be used, but that then means no hyperthreading support and generally just being a tiny bit slower.

So I'm proposing that Home Assistant should offer and automation view mode that presents the automation as a flow.

Use cases

Automations that have many conditionals and branch in various ways. For example, controlling lights based on the sleep/wake status and home/away status of multiple people in a home, sun elevation, and other factors can quickly become very complicated.

Current workarounds

Currently, I use Node-RED for this sort of thing. While possible to do in Home Assistant automations, the lack of a flow visualization makes it more difficult to do so.

Anything else?

I am going to add a link here to my own feature proposal because they are quite related to each other.
